Comment on I upgraded my LCD to OLED with DeckSight! Also swapped the case and buttons while I was at it

  It’s 1080p, which is unfortunately just a little harder to drive. Apparently the hardware in the new screen technically supports hardware downscaling to 720p, but that isn’t implemented yet, and may never be.

    Ah, dang - I was hoping for a 1:1 replacement.

    I mostly just use mine to emulate PS1-2 games, so 1080p isn’t all that enticing - but OLED blacks definitely would be.

      While not as enticing, it should be much easier for the deck to handle.

      People’s concern with the increased resolution is that games that are already marginal, like horizon forbidden West, will slip further down in frame rate.

      If hardware accelerated 720p becomes a thing with a software update, I’ll most likely bump it down for a net INCREASE in performance 😬
